I am extremely blessed! I have a wonderful husband, a sweet little boy and great friends. I'm so thankful to God for all He's done and provided. He continues to bless me each and every day. I love reading, working on my blog, shopping and hanging out with my family. I enjoy talking on the phone and planning get-togethers. I love my church and my Sisters in Christ Sunday School class. These are just a few things about me…

Here's me and my sweeties last June at my cousin's wedding. Luke was Keith and Amy's ring bearer and he did an awesome job! He was NOT very excited about it at all. My brother, Patrick, was our ring bearer and he's 24 years old now. I never served in a wedding as a flower girl...awwww!!!! Don't little girls just love this?!? I love going to weddings and I have only been in a handful...maybe three.

We had a pretty big wedding (at our church, five attendants apiece, 250 guests, etc.) and I loved planning it. There are probably tons of things I would have done differently now, but I love looking back at my pictures and remembering all the work (and fun) it was!

What a sweet family photo! Charlie and I had a big wedding/reception and I wouldn't change a thing about it. In two months we will celebrate one year of marriage. I have been in four weddings and "served" in countless others. You know, served at the reception or before the wedding at the book. Weddings are wonderful, but marriage is even better!

I've been in about 4 weddings. Aside from having to wear the dresses I didn't care for too much, it was fun. Keith and I had a small wedding. We got married in the garden of the Main Library downtown and had right around 80 guests. It was a lot of fun and to me, very beautiful. We got married at sunset so i could have tons of candles everywhere.I totally agree with Megan, wedding are great, but marriage is so much better!

Amy - I read your blog quite a bit. It is very fun! Until I started reading Sunshine's I had never made a comment! I'm on a roll now - this will be my fourth - woo hoo!

Anyway - I think I've only been in 2 weddings. One in the early 90's where the bride chose mauve dresses with green bows and shoes - oh my! I got to choose the dress in the 2nd one and it was much better.

Jeff and I had a very small wedding. We semi-eloped. I never dreamed of the big wedding and it was stressing me out to plan a small one. So Jeff asked me about a month and a half before the planned date if I would marry him that night. His grandfather is a Baptist minister and he married us that night under a tree at the Mt Ida court house. If I remember correctly there were 11 of us - ha. I love our story and our wedding memories! Thanks for asking! ~Carmella

I have been in five weddings as a bridesmaid and a flower girl and I sat at a bride's book. I love weddings, but I don't think I would ever want to plan one again. Luckily, when I got married, weddings were the events they are today. We got married at church and had the reception in the gym. Nothing fancy, but it was so special to us. I love that picture of your three. Luke looks so cute in his littel tuxedo.

I was a flower girl I twice and I've been a bridesmaid eight times (counting one I'm in this fall). I believe that will be the end of my wedding career but it's been fun. We had a normal sized wedding I guess. We each had 4 attendants (which I thought was pretty small) and we had about 250-300 guests.
